My flights were booked through American but my 1st flight is operated by UsAir landing in Laguardia 7:16 terminal C with my connection boarding 7:35 in terminal B with an 8:20 scheduled departure. Is there any way I'll make it? Is it possible to get from C to B without having to go back through security?

There is no connection inside security. You have to exit security and take the Route A or Route B bus to Terminal B and then go through security. Everything will have to go perfectly for you to make your connection. I don't know what AA keeps selling these very difficult multi-terminal connections at LGA.

I have a short 45 minute layover at LGA, is it possible to walk from terminal B to terminal C? if, so how long will it take, if not what is the best option to go between both terminals in such a short time? I only have a carry on bag

It's a very difficult walk, there's no clear walking path. You can take the route A bus but that doesn't really leave you much time. Either way you will have to go through security again in Terminal C. I think this is a nearly impossible connection.

Just realized my flight tomorrow has a 70 min connection in LGA en route to Montreal and we have to switch terminals from C to B. Is there a way to get from terminal to terminal and not go back out to security? Also, will they check a bag all the way through or do we need to pick it up and re-check it?

There is no connection from C to B inside security. Your bags will be checked all the way through. You will have to take the Route A or Route B bus outside security to Terminal B and go through security. You still have enough time if your first flight is on-time.

I had an AA > USAirways change on 1/12/15 in LGA. 45 minutes, terminal B > C. AA had a podium at term B-gate D2 that provided a shuttle between the terminals on the tarmac, all within security and right to my gate! I could not have made it otherwise. I even called AA and asked them about the connection process - she didn't know about the shuttle service.

Hi! I'm arriving at terminal D from Toronto WestJet flight to take a flight on Virgin America to DAL from terminal B gate C6. I have 1hr 45 min. What is my best option for getting from TB to TD? I am a Nexus flyer so can pass through security quickly. I guess I will have to get luggage and then check luggage since it's a different airline...suggestions?!

Shuttle route A or B will take you from Terminal D to Terminal B. They run outside security along the curbfront. Yes, WestJet and Virgin America do not have an interline agreement so you will have to collect your bags from Westjet and re-check them with Virgin America. NEXUS does now allow you to use faster security lines, however, security lines at LGA TB are generally short. You have barely enough time if your first flight is on-time.

I've got a 50min connection time between arriving from RDU and leaving for YYZ - both flights on American. I know American uses Terminal B, but I'm not sure which concourses I'll be in/out of. If it's worst-case and I have to clear security between concourses, is 50min enough time to make my connection?

I'm trying to get from Terminal C (US Airways) to parking lot P5 on the other side of Terminal D. Is there a way to stay indoors as long as possible during inclement weather? In particular, is there an indoor connection between Terminal C and D?

Arriving from YUL (Canada) to LGA at 08:45, then need to get to 10:00 flight LGA-BOS. Both on Delta in First. No bags, but I assume we need to go through immigration and then security again. Is there a fast track way to do this. I see that Delta shuttle moves to C31&32 on Nov 1st, and we travel on Nov 1st which should help. Have we enough time? Any tips please?

My boy friend arrives to terminal C or D (Delta from Atlanta) and I will be arriving 2 hours later to terminal B (United Airlines from Houston). He will pick me up but we don´t know where. Could you recommend us a place? Where should we meet?

I have one hr between flights on a Friday. I will be flying into LGA at 9pm on United Airlines and my connecting flight is Delta (Terminal D). From what I understand, I will have to go through security again at Terminal D.........Is this realistic in one hour?

Hello, I have 2 roundtrip trips butt up against one another. I am flying into LGA on delta at 7:47AM, and taking off for another flight at 8:40AM through US airways (again, 2 separate tickets). I know delta is terminal C/D, and US airways is terminal C, and know that there is a indoor connection between the 2 terminals now, but am wondering if I have to go through security again given it is different airlines? Thanks for your help in advance

i forgot to mention that i am not planning to have any check-in bags, only carry on. i know the walk between C and D is doable as i've done it before, my concern is just if i have to go thru security again since its a change of airline. thanks again

I have a very short time between my connection, so short that it was bought as 2 separate tickets because any airline would not advise such a short time between connections. But I have to risk it because I am trying to make a deadline. Anyway i know I arrive at terminal D from one flight, and then have to catch my next one at terminal. Can one walk between the 2 terminals or do you have to get a shuttle? Thanks in advance as I'm sure this question has been asked several times
